About Princes House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Princes House is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Brighton (BN1 1EA). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 474 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. At 44 m² this is the 9th smallest of 32 units on EPC record in Princes House, where floor areas span 31–187 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 32 units on file. The latest certificate (October 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71).
Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 is 25.9% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£510/sq ft) was about 41.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Princes House is modelled from its 44 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 1EA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Princes House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Princes House was lodged in October 2021 at band D and is valid until October 2031. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Princes House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN1 1EA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Princes House is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
